Op-ed | Starting the new school year with new buildings, new curricula and more | amNewYork
Briefly

We came into office with a clear mission: to build a safer, more affordable city. As the administration running the largest school district in the nation, we are committed to giving our children a first-class education.
For the upcoming school year, we have opened 24 new school buildings across the five boroughs, adding 11,000 new student seats, the most K-12 seats we have added in a single year since 2003.
Additionally, for the first time in New York City history, we have provided offers to 100% of families who wanted an early childhood education seat... The total number of students who received an early childhood offer is over 53,000.
